Home Sweet Home!

So... We are home at last! It is so good to sleep in my own most comfortable bed. I loved the trip and the experience that it brought with it. We flew home on Transat, and we tried to check in, we found that we could only bring 5 kg on our carry ons! We had to switch everything around, and that took about half an hour. Then we got on our plane and flew with very boring movies to Toronto. The we flew to our lovely home. We went to Oma's for dinner and had meatloaf and mashed potatoes for dinner, then we slept there over night with Luca. And that is that I guess, of our grand voyage from London to Athens...or really to London again. It was a lot of fun but I am happy to be home sweet home.

Almost home! (Our last day in London)




Today is our last day till we go home! I'm really happy to be somewhere familiar. (Sort of at least.)First we went to Windsor castle. The Queen lives there a lot of the time. When she comes there they put up a special flag so that every one knows where she is. My favorite part was queen Mary's doll house. Every thing was made miniature, including the crown jewels! It was really cool. Then we saw the state rooms, there were a lot of them but I liked St. George's hall the best. It was all redone after the fire that they had there. Unfortunately St. George's hall was all wood! I can imagine it burned up rather quickly. The King's drawing room was also pretty nice. After Windsor castle we wanted to go to St. Paul's but it was way too expensive. Then we went to the Mouse trap which is an Agatha Christie play. It was really really good. We all had fun watching it. Then we ate supper at the Mediterranean place by the hostel.
Bye!
